The thing is SE doesn't support this.
If anyone makes money off it other than them, they would not approve it, it would have to be free but then SE would not let that happen also because its cutting into something they could possibly make money off of.

I really wish this is something that SE would consider in the near future.

I'd like to share something I made a couple of months ago. I modelled a miniature version of my own character from scratch and 3D printed it with the help of a friend working in the 3D printing industry. I'm pretty proud of the result:

Seriously, I want to talk to you about making one for my wife. Where can I contact you to talk about it more privately?

They can get someone to 3D print/sculpt a behemoth for a ride at fan fest. Can't get something set up for 3D prints of characters. *Sigh* to have better access to a model viewer and ability to export to srt and get a statue CNCed...

/SIGNED ! So Hardly Signed.

Would love this!

I want this but I want it a step further, I want pose-able action figures, twith joints and different heads/faces for expressions. >w>

I saw this post when it originally was posted, and I loved the idea. Now that it is back up, I need to indorse it. Please do this SE!!! Thanks!

I would probably pay for this too, that would be so neat.
